Greetings Murrow!
Welcome to the 2025-2026 school year! Classes begin on September 4, 2025 and we will be following our regular Murrow schedule. Here are some important things to know for September 4, 2025:
-
Program –You can access your semester 1 program by checking your NYC DOE email. Your official programs will be emailed to you by Tuesday, September 2, 2025. Once you access your program, please bring a copy of your program with you on September 4, 2025. You will need a copy of your program when you enter the building.
- ID Card – All students must bring their ID card to school each day. You will be asked to show your Murrow student ID and a copy of your program to enter the building.
- We will be following the regular Murrow schedule – If you have an A-Band class (period 1), class begins at 7:45am. Students who have an A-Band should arrive by 7:30am. If your first class starts B-Band (period 2), your day will begin at 8:33am.
- In accordance with New York State law, students are not permitted to use personal internet-enabled electronic devices during the school day from bell to bell. This includes devices such as cell phones, laptops, tablets, and portable music and entertainment systems. Please review the updates on the NYCPS website as well as Murrow’s updated cell phone policy.
- OMNY Cards and cell phone pouches will be distributed during B-Band class on Thursday, September 4, 2025. If you do not have a B-Band class, you will receive these items during C-Band.
If you have any questions regarding your DOE email account or ID card, there will be staff members available at the entrance to assist you.
